| Abstract: | Summary Intracellular bacteria belonging to two phylogenetically different groups of eubacteria were found in cultures of the freshwater dinoflagellatePeridinium cinctum (O. F. Müller) Ehrenberg isolated from the eutrophic lake Plußsee (Federal Republic of Germany). The phylogenetic relationships of the bacteria were studied with fluorochrome-conjugated oligonucleotides specific for archaebacteria, eubacteria,  -,  - and  -proteobacteria, complementary to 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA sequences, respectively. The bacteria are members of the eubacterial - and -subgroups of proteobacteria. |
